Dropping Bombs

This episode was sponsored by Cardiff, Henson Services, & Maurer Wrecker Service LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ In this episode of Dropping Bombs, entrepreneur and volunteer firefighter Patrick Henson shares his journey from burnout to building a growing blue-collar empire. Patrick opens up about hitting rock bottom while working 100-hour weeks, drinking to cope, and reaching a point where he thought everyone would be better off without him. Then a random clip from Shawn Ryan's podcast changed everything. It led him to a five-day ibogaine and DMT experience in Mexico that reset his mind, killed his ego, and gave him a level of gratitude he never knew was possible. He breaks down what it's actually like to experience "death" on DMT and the profound gratitude he now feels daily. Plus, how he went from being a prisoner in his own business to acquiring multiple companies and scaling the right way. If you've ever felt like something in your life needed to change, this episode will light a fire under you. 🔗 Connect with Patrick Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/phenson369/ ✅ Additional Resources Mentioned: Ambio Life Sciences: https://www.ambio.life/ EOS: https://www.eosworldwide.com/ Shawn Ryan's Psychedelic Experience: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asrnXJ-xCzs Watch the full-length video version of any Dropping Bombs episode here on YouTube.

Michele breaks down why most people never make the money they want — it's not the economy, it's not the market, it's not bad luck. It's mindset, skill set, and habits they've never been taught. She reveals how Real Training is transforming people from the inside out, helping them break destructive patterns, crush victim mentality, and become unrecognizable versions of themselves before they ever make a single sale. This episode exposes why most high-ticket closing courses are robbing you blind, why a guaranteed remote sales position at the end of Real Training makes college look like the biggest scam ever sold, and what it really takes to go from stuck to unstoppable. If you're not making the money you want, you don't need more time — you need the right training, the right coach, and the guts to bet on yourself. The opportunity is real. The job is guaranteed. The only question is whether you are.
